  • Alumni Early Memories

    Mrs. Rita Assadourian and Mrs. Nadia Kalindjian who joined The Junior School in 1950 and moved to the new school building, remember walking to their new school, carrying their books in their bag. When the School was opened children were given “the bumps” in each of the four corners of the front area of the School, trees were planted, and they remember that being a great day as they did not have any lessons!
